Eyebrow Products for Sensitive Eyes

Eyebrow Pencil: Eyebrow pencils are the most common product to use on ones eyebrows. You should select a natural looking brow pencil product that is preferably self-sharpening so you will always have a sharpened point for accurate application. For a natural looking arch, use gentle, short strokes and remember to blend with a smudger or eyebrow brush. Waterproof, hypoallergenic brow pencils are ideal as they will resist water and humidity and brow color will stay on until you take it off.

Eyebrow Powder: Brow powder is a matte powder with high color pigments. It is preferable to use oil free, fragrance hypoallergenic eyebrow powders. These will not irritate sensitive eyes. It is best to select a brow powder that complements your eye shadow shade and matches your hair color. Eyebrow powder provides a natural look and can be blended with a variety of brow shades to get the right one for you. Apply brow color with an angle eye or brow brush with gentle, light strokes and blend well.

Eyebrow Tints, Waxes and Gels: Brow gels and waxes come in clear grooming gel (Brow Fix Gel) or hypoallergenic brow color formulas, and brow tints likewise come in a variety of natural-looking brow shades. These are excellent brow products to set the brow shape in place and many have antioxidant rich formulas that also help to nourish and condition the brow area. Most women apply a clear brow fix or tint on top of eyebrow pencil or powder to help maintain a perfectly groomed natural brow.

Eyebrow Liners: Brow Liners come in a soft felt tip for precision brow color application and may be used alone or with eyebrow stencils. Brow Liner Pencils are waterproof and provide a natural-looking finish.

How to color and shape brows?

1) Choose a shade of Brow Pencil, Powder, Gel Wax or Balm based on the depth of color desired, rather than on actual current hair color.

2) Using a Brow Pencil or in the case of powder/gel a Brow Definer Brush, and apply even strokes of powder, gel or balm throughout the entire brow. If you prefer crisp well-defined edges use a brow stencil after careful tweezing and shaping.

3) Layer a second coat on areas where more pigment is needed.

4) Blend the edges of brows using your fingertip or brow smudger to soften brow lines and make them appear more natural.
